## Summary description

PIMORONI Pico Proto is a prototyping board designed to work with the Raspberry Pi Pico microcontroller. It provides a breadboard-style area and breakout connections that align with the Pico’s GPIO pins, enabling solderless testing, circuit prototyping and quick hardware iterations. Suitable for development, education and hobby projects that require adding components, headers or sensors to a Pico.

## Long description

PIMORONI Pico Proto for Raspberry Pi Pico is a compact prototyping board that attaches directly to a Raspberry Pi Pico. It provides a breadboard-style prototyping area and breakout connections aligned with the Pico's GPIO layout, allowing quick, solderless testing and easy addition of components, headers or sensors. The board is intended to streamline hardware iterations and simplify wiring when developing projects with the Pico microcontroller.
Advantages
The Pico Proto offers a ready-made prototyping surface that matches the Pico pinout, reducing setup time and layout errors. Its breadboard-style pads permit temporary wiring and component placement without committing to solder, while the accessible breakout connections make it straightforward to connect sensors, LEDs, switches and other peripherals. The compact footprint preserves the Pico form factor and keeps projects tidy during development and testing.
Suitable for
 Rapid prototyping and proof-of-concept circuits with Raspberry Pi Pico
 Educational projects and classroom exercises involving microcontroller hardware
 Hobbyist electronics, sensor integration and small automation tasks
 Testing connections before soldering to a permanent board
Key specifications
 Form factor: compact prototyping board sized to align with Raspberry Pi Pico
 Prototyping area: breadboard-style pads suitable for through-hole components and jumper wires
 Pin alignment: breakout connections matching Pico GPIO and power pins
 Connectivity: pads and headers for easy access to I/O, power and ground
 Material: standard PCB suitable for solderless testing and later soldering
How to use
Place the Raspberry Pi Pico onto the prototyping board so its pins align with the breakout pads. Use jumper wires or component leads on the breadboard-style area to build circuits and verify connections. For temporary setups, use male/female jumper leads to connect sensors and modules; for more permanent assemblies, solder headers or components to the designated pads. Verify power and ground connections before powering the Pico and test I/O lines with simple example code.
Usage recommendations
Use the Pico Proto for iterative development: prototype connections and sensor wiring without solder, then transfer stable circuits to a soldered board. Keep power rails correctly wired and observe voltage limits of your sensors and peripherals when testing. For classroom use, pair the board with clear wiring diagrams and incremental code examples to ensure safe, reproducible experiments.
